Chapter 77: The First Chess Game (1)

The process of returning to the palace was very smooth. The palace guards and palace maids were obviously very familiar with Baili's car, and Luo Yao had specially greeted him before leaving yesterday, saying that his sister would come to visit the emperor again today, and Qing Ling was welcomed into the inner room of his dormitory without saying much.

Baili Ningyan pretended to be sick for a day and a night in the Yinque Palace, and he was still lying on the couch at this moment.

Seeing Qing Ling returning, she waved her hand away from the maid, got up neatly and got up, stared at Qing Ling, and asked, "Is everything going well?" Have you been seen by others as flaws? ”

Qing Ling knew that Ning Yan had always acted cautiously, lest he cause unnecessary trouble and tarnish the reputation of the Baili clan, so he said, "Don't worry, no one knows about this matter." Even if you accidentally spread it, just say that I forced you. ”

She remembered Luo Yao's yin and yang weirdness just now, and originally wanted to say that since you are worried about here and there one by one, why bother taking me out of the palace to ventilate? I want to suspect that you have other plans!

But in a blink of an eye, looking at Ning Yan's beautiful and cold face, Qing Ling swallowed back the words that came to his mouth.

The feeling between people is sometimes very subtle.

Some people, even if they keep smiling and making cordial gestures on their faces, they just make you look unpleasant, or make you think that he has bad intentions. There are also people, on the contrary, even if they keep dumping you with a cold face, you can intuitively sense that he is actually a good person and has no bad intentions towards you.

Just like now, Qing Ling looked at Baili Ningyan, and subconsciously didn't want to be cruel to her.

Qing Ling cleared her throat, looked away, raised her hand to remove her headdress, unbuttoned her coat, and prepared to return Ning Yan's clothes to her.

With a "thud", a sachet containing an object fell from between her coats.

Qing Linghu suspiciously picked up the sachet and opened the tie, only to see that there was the magical shadow bead he had seen last night inside.

Qing Ling held the bead in his hand and looked at it for a long time, but he really couldn't remember when this thing arrived on him.

Don't...... Last night, he not only knocked down his junior brother, but also put his hands on him, and even touched his belongings?!

Ning Yan had already seen what Qing Ling was holding in his hand, and he was silently melancholy in his heart, and whispered: "This bead is not easy to come by, and I hope you cherish it." ”

Qing Ling came back to his senses and hurriedly handed the shadow bead to Ning Yan, "This is your brother's thing, but somehow it ran to me." Mostly last night...... Got it wrong. You can help me give it back to him! ”

Ning Yan flashed away and took the dress that Qing Ling had changed, "You have to pay it back yourself." ”

Qing Ling said in his heart, the strange tempers of these two brothers and sisters are the same, it seems that the bloodline of the Jiuqiu Luo clan is really a demon among demons......

She tried to reason, "I can't get out of the palace now." You'll bring it to him when you get home. ”

Baili Ningyan raised his eyes, his gaze roamed around Qing Ling's face, and he stopped talking, and finally said coldly: "Since it has come to you, it is yours." Why bother pushing around? ”

Qing Ling analyzed Ning Yan's tone, and felt that she seemed to have some kind of complaint against herself.

After a moment in my heart, I suddenly realized.

Oh, yes! Isn't Ning Yan a little bit like Chun Yuyan?

Not to mention the various gossips between himself and Chun Yuyan, just because Yan was involved by himself and relegated back to his hometown, it was enough to make Ning Yan resentful, right?

Qing Ling is always very sympathetic to lovers who are in love but can't stay together, so he softened his voice, "Chun Yuyan's incident was my recklessness." After a few days, I will go and ask the queen to intercede with my father and no longer prohibit him from coming to Lingxiao City, okay? ”

Ning Yan was merciless, and put on a straight face, "If he doesn't come to Lingxiao City, what does it have to do with me?" ”

Qing Ling sneered: "You think it's irrelevant, but he is thinking about it in his heart." ”

Ning Yan's crony fingers paused, his eyebrows lowered, and after a while, he sneered and said, "What do the people of Lingxiao City know about thinking?" All they can hold in their hearts is power. Or, they don't have a heart at all, just selfishness and indifference after weighing the two. ”

She slowly raised her head, looking at Qing Ling's gaze, a pair of beautiful eyes that were clear and longing were faintly red, "This truth, Emperor Ji should understand this truth better than me." ”

Baili Ningyan has always been cold and self-controlled, and his temperament is dusty, and even the reddened appearance of his eyes carries a kind of pride of being bright and noble. Qing Ling was a little choked for a while, and he didn't know what to say, and when he came back to his senses, he opened his mouth to speak, but saw that Ning Yan had finished dressing, and stretched out his hand to open the curtain.

"My brother and I will go back to Daze today. At this point, he resigned to the emperor. ”

After saying that, he flicked the curtain and walked out.

Qing Ling couldn't help but move under his feet, and wanted to chase after him and ask a few more questions, but when he lowered his hair, he realized that he was only wearing a silver jasmine middle coat, and his bandeau was also exposed.

Go back to Daze today?

Why didn't you hear Xiao Qi mention it?

Demons, demons, Qing Ling fell on the couch, counting with his fingers, I didn't think there was anything to despise about the demon clan before, but when I think about it, Luo Heng is the first to bear the brunt of the horror, and his slender temperament can be regarded as a little eccentric, as for those half-demons, such as Chun Yuyan and the two brothers and sisters of the Baili family, they are all yin and yang.

It seems that it is understandable that the Protoss looks down on the Demon Clan......

After dinner, Ah Jing came to see Qingling.

After chatting a few words absentmindedly, Ah Jing looked at Qing Ling, "I heard that Daze's son and young lady came to visit you?" ”

Qing Ling said "oh", "They went back to Daze today, and before leaving, they came to say goodbye to me, and when they saw that I was seriously injured, they sent some medicine out of sympathy." ”

Ah Jing suddenly changed color, "What, they left today?" Didn't you say that you would leave Soaring City after three days? ”

Qing Ling took a sip of Junshan Silver Needle, which had been consumed after eating, and said absentmindedly: "Maybe there is something urgent at home, right?" ”

Ah Jing pinched the teacup, bit the corner of her mouth and was distracted for a moment, and said quietly: "He must be angry......"

Qing Ling was puzzled, "Angry? Who's angry? ”

Ah Jing raised a pair of watery peach blossom eyes and stared at Qing Ling, "You have been locked in the dormitory all day, and you naturally don't know what happened outside!" ”

Qing Ling was angry and funny, "Listening to your tone, it seems that you blame me for not knowing anything?" I didn't voluntarily get locked up here! Besides, I haven't heard you mention anything big going on outside. ”

Ah Jing stared at her slender jade fingers resting on the case, and after a while, she said: "I also heard it from the queen mother, and she didn't allow me to take it out and talk nonsense......... In fact, after the last time the Lieyang people raided Xianxia Pass, my father had a heart set on destroying several small countries in the south. ”

Qing Ling's heart tightened when he heard this.

A few small countries in the south, don't they include Zhong Qi, Yuzhong, Yanye, and Jiuqiu?

Ah Jing lowered her eyes and continued: "Father has always hated Jiuqiu. In the past, he was afraid of Lieyang, and he did not dare to easily disperse his forces and start a war in the south. Now," she raised her eyes and glared at Qing Ling, "Because of the Qingyun Sword on your body, you don't have to worry about the people of Lieyang, so you don't have to worry about dealing with Jiuqiu." You also know the relationship between Jiuqiu and Daze. The mother of Fu Yao and Ning Yan is the queen of Jiuqiu, and once Chaoyan and Jiuqiu go to war, their situation will inevitably be very difficult. ”

Qingling said: "Jiuqiu and Chaoyan fought hundreds of years ago, didn't the Imperial Marquis of Daze have a very clear position at that time and have always been on Chaoyan's side? Even if he fights again, the prince will probably help his father. ”

Ah Jing shook her head, "The prince is the prince, and the prince is the prince." What the prince gave up back then was only the love of husband and wife. And Fu Yao and his mother are connected by blood, and they can't be saved without seeing death. ”

As long as Baili Fuyao stood by his mother's side, he would immediately become Chaoyan's enemy.

Qing Ling looked at Ah Jing's sad and worried face, and comforted: "Don't think so seriously. Even if there is a real war, it doesn't have to be a fight to the death, maybe my father has other plans. Besides, my seventh junior brother has always been the best at talking, and I think he has coaxed his father to favor him these days, and praised him for his brilliant understanding. ”

When Ah Jing heard the words of praise for her sweetheart, she couldn't help but quickly raise the corners of her lower lip, and then drooped down again, and said with bitter eyes: "Who can understand my father's thoughts?" Do you know that he specially selected a few clan women last month and sent them to Daze, saying that it was a side room for the imperial marquis. ”

Qing Ling smiled: "Those are all given to the side room of the imperial marquis, and they are not for his son, why are you worried?" ”

Ah Jing snorted, "What do you know?" The prince has lived alone for a long time, and there is only one son under his knees, Fuyao, but his mother is a demon clan of Jiuqiu. If someone in these side rooms gave birth to a boy with a complete Protoss bloodline, then Fu Yao's position as the son of the world might not be indestructible. ”

Qing Ling looked at Ah Jing, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart, no matter how arrogant and vicious a woman is, once she moves her sincerity, she will immediately turn into a finger twister, and she can only pretend to be that person in her eyes, and everything is planned for him......

Ah Jing was embarrassed to be stared at, and was about to open her mouth to speak, but saw Qingling take out a sachet and hand it to her.

"This ...... What is it? ”

"This is given to you by the Seventh Senior Brother."

Ah Jing took out the shadow beads in the sachet and looked at it in her hand for a while, feeling a little puzzled.

I remember that when I came out of the maze that night, I thought that Luo Yao would give him the last treasure, but he didn't say a word. Ah Jing didn't care much about this demon pill originally, and she had already obtained the two best things in the maze, so even though she was a little disappointed, she didn't take it to heart.

Seeing Qing Ling take it out now, saying that it was given to him by the prince before leaving, Ah Jing couldn't help but speculate about his intentions, for fear of missing the hidden meaning.

Qing Ling raised his glass and sipped tea, glanced at Ah Jing with a look of shame and joy, and said with a smile: "Since you are happy with each other, why don't you book a family affair as soon as possible." My father loves you so much, and for your happiness, he will never abolish his position as a son. ”

Ah Jing's cheeks flushed, and she said coquettishly: "What are you talking nonsense!" Marriage matters, you need to listen to your parents, how can you make a private contract? Besides, you, who are sisters, are not engaged yet, how can it be your turn to consider my affairs? ”

Qingling raised his cheeks and made a sad expression, "I was confined to the palace by my father, and I don't even know when and when I regained my freedom, what kind of engagement are you talking about?" ”

Ah Jing seized the opportunity to count Qingling: "Who let you get involved with people like Chun Yuyan?" Still making a lot of trouble in the city? When your father rebuked you, you didn't know how to admit your mistakes and ask for forgiveness. He waved his fingertips pityingly, "Okay, I'll find an opportunity to intercede with my father." ”

Qingling took advantage of the situation to catch Ah Jing's hand, "Good sister, I'm almost moldy when I'm locked up, it's really boring." Can you help me invite some young ladies from the family to come to Yinque Palace as guests and chat with me and enjoy the flowers? ”

Ah Jing was aroused by Qing Ling's "good sister" goosebumps, pulled out her hand, and glanced at her, "Look at you like this, how can you have the demeanor of an emperor?" I'm unlucky, with a sister like you......"
